The darkness has started taking over the sky. The sun is going back from where it will come back tomorrow bringing a new day. But, nothing will be same.

I'll be a new person tomorrow with a new name and family. Tonight is going to be the game changer in my life. Never, I thought that this day will come this soon. I'm just 21. But, nothing can be changed now. The truth stays the same that I'm getting married today.

I'll no longer remain Avni Mehta. I'll be Mrs. Avni Neil Khanna.

Yes! I'm getting married to Neil Khanna. The most eligible bachelor of the country. He's a millionaire. His business is spread all across the globe.

My father met him at a global conference held in Italy. He was very impressed by his skills and personality. My father is someone hard to impress. But Neil left his imprint on his heart.

After coming back home, all that he used to do was speak about Neil's intelligence,aura and personality. My mom was also happy to hear about him and an idea came up in her mind. She asked my father to send him my  marriage proposal.

I was completely kept out of these talks until the Khanna's decided to give the proposal a chance.

All of a sudden, I was asked to dress up in one of the most expensive designer clothes. My mom was too keen on making me wear a 20 kg lehenga. But it was too much.

She was so desperate on making this alliance a success. As if, she had decided that she'll make Neil her son in law at any cost. I ended up choosing a peach pink anarkali for myself. It was a simple plain suit with golden detailing on the dupatta. My mother went hysterical after seeing me dressed up in it. She said that I should've worn something more heavy. Like come on,they were just coming to meet me. Not like, they were going to call a pandit and ask me to get married that moment only.

I was really annoyed by my mother's behavior. She was acting crazy, still is .

Neil was dressed up in a simple white button down shirt and jeans. So, Mr. Billionaire does wear casual clothes.
The moment I entered the room, everyone's eyes were on me. I felt too conscious. I wished everyone and sat down beside my mother. Although, she had annoyed me a lot that day but the peace I got from her being near me is incomparable. After all, mother's love.

We were asked to talk alone. We went outside in the garden and sat on the bench.
Neil is a really nice person. He spoke to me sweetly, politely and made me feel comfortable as well. All that I did throughout the conversation was answering his questions. I did not even bother to ask anything because I had already decided my answer. Like, who the hell wants to get married at 21? Not me, at least.

We talked for about half an hour and then went inside. I again sat beside my mother. When everyone asked our decision, Neil said a yes. Well, he definitely is every girls dream man but I'm not going to get married at 21. Before, I could say my answer, my mom held my hand tightly and said that its a yes from our side as well. I was in deep shit. My mother without asking my opinion just gave an answer on my behalf which could change my life forever.

I felt betrayed. Betrayed by my own parents.

Today, I am sitting here on my bed for the last time waiting for my beautician to transform me into a bride....
